Abstract
Cylindrical loads are commonly found in microwave heating. However, cylindrical loads tend to have a thermal focus, leading to uneven microwave heating. In this paper, a novel microwave heating method was proposed by employing resonant rings to mitigate the thermal focus of cylindrical loads. Firstly, a multiphysics simulation model for microwave heating of a cylindrical tube is established, and the influence of the resonant ring around the cylindrical tube on the temperature distribution of load was analyzed. Subsequently, microwave heating experiments of agar gels with and without resonant rings were carried out. In agreement with the simulation results, the use of resonant rings reduces the coefficient of temperature variation (COV) from 1.064 to 0.793. In addition, the parameters affecting the heating uniformity of the cylindrical tube were discussed through simulations.
期刊介绍：
International Journal of RF and Microwave Computer-Aided Engineering provides a common forum for the dissemination of research and development results in the areas of computer-aided design and engineering of RF, microwave, and millimeter-wave components, circuits, subsystems, and antennas. The journal is intended to be a single source of valuable information for all engineers and technicians, RF/microwave/mm-wave CAD tool vendors, researchers in industry, government and academia, professors and students, and systems engineers involved in RF/microwave/mm-wave technology.
Multidisciplinary in scope, the journal publishes peer-reviewed articles and short papers on topics that include, but are not limited to. . .
-Computer-Aided Modeling
-Computer-Aided Analysis
-Computer-Aided Optimization
-Software and Manufacturing Techniques
-Computer-Aided Measurements
-Measurements Interfaced with CAD Systems
In addition, the scope of the journal includes features such as software reviews, RF/microwave/mm-wave CAD related news, including brief reviews of CAD papers published elsewhere and a "Letters to the Editor" section.
